Like payphones, cassette tapes, floppy disks and other ancient technologies, the idea of a Daniel Jones Turnover Machine is outdated.
In maybe the most drastic correction of a player’s weakness that the Giants have experienced since Tiki Barber fixed his fumbling issue, Jones has thrown the fewest interceptions of any NFL quarterback with at least 10 starts. He and the injured Jimmy Garoppolo are tied for the fewest of any quarterback with at least 200 attempts: Jones has twice that many and about 100 more than Garoppolo, who opened the season as a backup.rth: Jones is playing like a winner.
“Give credit to him,” head coach Brian Daboll said. “He has to take care of the ball in the pocket, and he has to be the one to make good decisions when he’s under pressure. We try to do things that accentuate his strengths. I think he can throw it on all three levels, but there’s a way to play each game against each opponent based on what they have defensively, how their rush is, what their corners look like.
“You can tell this is a quarterback-friendly system where the quarterback is in good position to make good decisions most of the time,” Jones said. “We’re certainly going to be aggressive when we can, but we won the [last] game, and that’s the goal. That’s what we’re focused on.” The numbers aren’t exciting. The performance was, in a word, decisive. There are no two better examples than his third-and-9 and fourth-and-9 conversions to Richie James on an 18-play, 97-yard touchdown drive.“I know he’s kind of a quiet guy, but in the huddle he’s a good leader,” Daboll said. “He knows everybody’s responsibilities. He can get things lined up, he can correct mistakes. He’s a problem-solver.
